#43678: ECW support in gdal -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: jsm@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Keywords: | Port: gdal -------------------------+-------------------------------- I have modified the gdal port to allow the use of the ECW SDK of Intergraph. A new variant called `ecw` is added. The version of gdal was also updated to 1.11.0. The patches `patch-gdalwarpkernel_opencl_c_2.diff` and `patch-port-cpl_spawn.cpp.diff` are not needed any more. The upstream version of gdal supports the SDK 5.1 which is located at `/Intergraph/ERDASEcwJpeg2000SDK5.1`. The new version of the SDK, 5.1.1, is located at `/Intergraph/ERDASEcwJpeg2000SDK5.1.1/Desktop_Read-Only` and a couple of symbolic links can be used to override the problem with the paths. If this version of the SDK is present and the links are not created, the port install process displays a message of how to do that (only if the variant `ecw`is set). This is probably not an ideal solution but it works. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43678> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
